airport staff reject pay and roster deal

(18 April 2002)

SECURITY staff at Manchester airport have rejected an offer from management that could have bought ongoing strike action to an end.

The staff, members of the Transport and General Workers Union, had been offered a 10% pay rise and new roster arrangements.

Further industrial action is now on the cards after the union’s rejection of the deal.

Security staff have been holding occasional strikes since February after the airport’s management announced plans to cut budgets and staff numbers.
